Frankenstein: Or, the Modern Prometheus, the Pennyroyal Edition Paperback - 1994

by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley; Afterword by Joyce Carol Oates; Barry Moser (Illustrator)


From the publisher

The California edition of the Pennyroyal Press Frankenstein unites the dark side of Barry Moser's art with the classic 1818 text of Mary Shelley's tale of moral transfiguration. In a vivid sequence of woodcuts, the reader witnesses the birth of the "monster" as Moser shapes him from darkness and gives him a form simultaneously ghastly in its malice and transfixing in its suffering.
